So I’m gonna have to say this. Having worked on a Porsche race team, I learned stainless steel brake lines are totally unnecessary. What people need are brake flushes and then they think it’s the stainless steel lines. We did endurance racing with rubber brake lines and had zero failures on them. Often the stainless lines can bind and fray over time if not installed correctly.

2 underrated modifications if you have a Turbo engine are oil catch cans and blow off valves. Catch cans will prevent your engine from getting gummed up and losing the horsepower that it already has. Upgraded blow off valves will prevent your Turbo from getting surge and destroying itself. I never see mention of them in your videos I'm guessing because fitment doesn't sell them. 😉 They are important beginner level modifications that will help protect your engine and future upgrades.

Final drive ratio changing, swapping your differential gears to a higher ratio means higher acceleration at the cost of top speed, thing is unless you're doing max speed pulls or go on a track with significant straight aways you'll never actually reasonably hit your max speed so it's basically no trade-off for higher acceleration assuming your tires can get a grip.

Alternatively, some cars come with a solid acceleration focused ratio, but end up with their top gear still way too accel oriented. 3k rpm to do 70mph is just miserable. If you’re lucky, it’s possible to get a top gear reduction swap. (Evo 5 speeds have this, you can get just the 5th gear swapped.) Desperate to find a swap for my FS Veloster’s 6th gear.
